Ball Holder

The Ball Holder is a versatile and engaging tool that enhances both visual appeal and hands-on learning in your construction area or Kodo Magnet Wall. Available in both magnetic and non-magnetic versions, this innovative accessory allows for flexible use across various settings. The non-magnetic Ball Holder can be installed on walls or attached to shelving units, while the magnetic version seamlessly integrates with any of Kodo’s Magnet Walls, offering endless opportunities for interactive play and learning.

More than just a storage solution, the Ball Holder is an activity within itself. Children are naturally drawn to the process of placing balls into the holder, removing them, and repeating the cycle, reinforcing important cognitive and motor skills. Through this simple yet engaging action, they explore concepts of stacking, slotting, and ordering, which lay the foundation for early mathematics and classification skills. The Ball Holder can accommodate up to 10 two-inch balls, making it a perfect tool for encouraging numeracy as children count and organize the balls by size, color, or type.

By integrating the Ball Holder into the classroom, educators can foster children’s care of the shared space and materials, promoting responsibility and organization. Simple activities such as adding "Ball Collector" to the classroom job chart or encouraging children to count balls as they are placed in the holder introduce structure and intentionality into everyday interactions. Furthermore, children can participate in designing systems for material organization, strengthening their sense of ownership and collaborative problem-solving skills.

To enhance learning, invite children to draw pictures that serve as labels for organizing materials, reinforcing both creativity and the use of tools. The act of grasping and maneuvering the balls also supports the development of fine motor skills, making this an engaging and educational resource for young learners.
